Call to Action from Athens, GA!

[gerryb]

I shared this post on Doug Wead's blog. It would be great if they sent out an email to GA people on their list of donors and such. I would guess that Doug could make this happen.

Or a live call transfer robocall =) -- the campaign will not do that though, IMHO, but grassroots can if they have a list.

Frankie Brown. Repping Athens, GA like a Boss!!

And for you other RPF'ers, she's a cutie.....

Thank you for the RealityCheck Mr. Swann


@OP, Frankie since this is the main thread now here's your update.
Working on a 'bite sized' release of this for social media, mean time a presentation of it is already submitted to the website I mentioned and I've tossed an SMS to my buddy so it gets streamlined through approval. Next up, passing the list & message on to a few supporters I know personally and then firing off e-mails to your list.

The board says I can't give you any more rep yet but I'm sure you and your people down there have more than earned it. And once again welcome to the forums.

Wonderful, thanks so much! I'm so excited to see how much attention our plight has gotten here. It's really heartening. We've all been working very hard, and we all appreciate the help.

good work, get this to the local media, that will put some pressure on them.
find some state house members and senators and convince them to speak on the behalf of rules.

Hello, Ms. Everhart

I was greatly dismayed at the way the March 10^th, 2012 meeting of the Athens-Clarke County GOP was conducted in blatant violation of Robert’s Rules of Order, but was glad to learn that the meeting was reconvened the next day and the situation rectified.

Because the March 10^th meeting was illegally closed after the delegate slate improperly voted on, in accordance with Robert's Rule of Order, the meeting was rightly reconvened and the delegate slate that had been chosen improperly was discarded and a new one chosen, following proper procedure. Corrected paperwork has been submitted.
The slate passed at the reconvened meeting of Athens-Clarke county which was held on March 11, 2012, is the only legal slate from that county and it the only slate that qualifies to have its delegates and alternates proceed to the District and State conventions.

The eyes of the nation are upon the Athens-Clarke County GOP to ensure that they do the right thing and adopt the legal slate of delegates.

I am writing you as a concerned citizen and member of the GOP. The rule braking and misconduct that occurred during the Athens-Clarke county proceedings must not be allowed to stand and tarnish our good name in the eyes of the nation as we move forward in our efforts to unseat Barack Obama.
Please take all measures to expediently ensure the restoration of the rules, the slate passed at the reconvened meeting of Athens-Clarke county which was held on March 11, 2012, is the only legal slate from that county and therefore should be the only slate that qualifies to have its delegates and alternates proceed to the District and State conventions.

Regardless of our personal candidate preference we simply cannot allow such events to become a spectacle and damage party unity at this crucial time.

Forgive me if I'm missing something but I wonder how much good it will do to ask the corrupt folks who planned and executed the fiasco that happened last Saturday to correct the situation.

Per RONR (11th Ed), p. 387 ll. 1-25, the vote taken at the meeting on video must be disregarded. I'm not sure whether or not the slate taken at the alternate meeting will hold (haven't looked into the rules for reconvening a GA county convention), but there is no question that the vote taken on video was invalidated by their behavior. If neither vote is valid, the county will have to reconvene the delegates on proper notice or they won't get to send any delegates to the state convention. Better be on the watch!
